Abstrakt: The objectives of this study were to determine how stomata of Chamaecyparis spp. react to environmental changes and to determine in what ways leaf resistance patterns may have adaptive value for these confers. Leaf resistances were measured of Chamaecyparis taiwanensis, C. formosensis and C. lawsoniana seedlings in a forest nursery, and of saplings of the first two species and Tsuga chinensis growing in natural forest and clearcuts. Light, temperature, humidity, and sometimes xylem pressure potential were measured concurrently.
